    Just keep them separate and let them have their own fun. Simples.
    Wow what common sense, yes exactly it's not a mixed sex game so why mixed sex commentators?

    Ex male players are experts and experienced at mens football, women ex players are experts and experienced and womens football!

      Re: Souness

      I don't think Souness said anything wrong. I also certainly don't think he was trying to have a dig at womens football, as is being suggested by certain posters . Good on him for not apologising, but the anti womens football hysteria on this thread is as bad as the ridiculous reaction to souness's comments.

      I do wonder though if the women's euros had a big impact on the administrators of the men's game. The lack of diving and the flow of the women's games was noticeable. Wouldn't be surprised if this was noted and has led to the refs being told to let the men's games flow more.

          It’s a few ex female players who appear to be doing that. Nothing to see here. Just move on.

            I've read that the term "conspiracy theorist" was first dispersed into the American lexicon by the American deep state in order to disparage those citizens who deviate from the MSM narrative. Not sure if that is true or not. I wouldn't mind hearing from anyone with knowledge on the roots of this term.
            I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but there is clearly a concerted effort within the media to push the ideology of equality. The woman's game is part of that drive. The more we impose equality on an unequal natural world. The less free we become.

                What’s wrong with female linesmen or refs? Or female commentators?
                I agree the quality of womens football is worse but gender doesn’t affect either of the above professions. Considering how often people moan about male refs perhaps some women would be a fresh change….

                  If they'd have sprung a female ref on us out of the blue 30 years ago, there would have been uproar. Not because she can't do the job, but because the players and fans didn't want it!

                  You're missing the fact that it's been pushed on us over time, against the will of the masses!

                    Re: Souness

                    Nothing wrong with wat he said. Like saying 'men against boys' in a one sided match. What he meant was 'it's a man's game'.....'not a boys game'.

                    I'd have zero problem if during the women's euros one of the commentators has said 'it's a women's game' meaning it's fulll blooded and not for girls.

                    However, I also have zero problem with female refs, assistants or commentators in the men's game. Let's all just take a common sense pill FFS.

                      This MB is going to the dogs. Lot’s of threads like this one, seems to spiral out of control in next to no time.. i’d guess the general census all over the UK is that Souness didn’t say anything out of line, and there’s nowt wrong with women’s football. End of really?

                          It would go to the dogs if opinions were censored. Thankfully they're not.

                          It's soft lads that can't handle a difference of opinion or a deviation from "political correctness" that think it's gone to the dogs.

                          Differences in opinion are healthy, can you not see that?

                            The problem is, a lot of posters on here are not capable of having a healthy discussion, and the threads usually end up with lots of abuse and venom.

                              Yeah, I remember being in South Africa during apartheid. Some of the differences in opinion people had should never have been challenged or driven out of society. You're talking bollox. Soft lads! Give over you tart.

                                Did the commentator on Sunday add value, I think it would have been better if Gary Neville or Roy Keene were there to comment, I would have preffered to see what they had to say, I know them and remember them playing top level football, and they are very entertaining and add to the enjoyment.

                                Why change it, it's worked well for years, get the best commentators regardless of sex, but the best!
